I noticed a few people I know started following me recently. I have not been on Twitter/X since last year (just checking it now). I'm keeping the account because I may use it again some day, if Elon disappears. In the meantime you can find me on Threads at simonrschultz.

And that is my very cool PhD student Phatsimo pictured. The photo may look posed but that is genuinely what he spends most of his time doing ;-).

ignoring start up package, do you have a yearly budget for your lab, either unrestricted 💰 or via a guaranteed # of people that the uni will cover?

(Note options re prof salary too… )

My grandmother isn't, although shortly before she passed away, she did start complaining that the VC-dimension of deep neural networks actually scales very poorly.

I may have been tempted to argue information theory for one second, but I’m still boycotting twitter/X, I’m not checking, honest.

Complex spike responses of a single mouse cerebellar Purkinje cell are modulated by multiple behavioral parameters in a self-initiated lever pull task, suggesting spatial modules of these cells that mediate functions of the cerebellar cortex. Kazuo Kitamura

I’m reminded of this quote from one of my academic grandfathers. I might make it my lab motto.

Lot of buzz going on about apples in ear electrodes patent

What a cool feeling to already have IP covered and to be on the market with IDUN Technologies - EEG Earbuds !

Unbelievably cool confirmation that we’re on the right track

According to a recent patent, it sounds like Apple will have in-ear EEG in their next generation AirPods. Interesting development.
